I've liked this dude for a while, and I can't believe they actually got him. Makes tough catches man, in tight coverage. Excellent Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
He is a great receiver. He barely ever blocked in college, though. Hopefully he can learn how to block and become an all-around TE.
I think Jordan held his own. He's got great hands. Dude can catch on the run, backed up, in the corner, tight coverage. I'm stoked. I hope he makes the leap to pro. I think he will. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
All he needs is the desire to be a winner on the Jets. Yes , he has the tools. He is smart enough to learn proper blocking techniques. Now our OC must start to call plays for TE's. I'm more then happy with this pick..
I think the question is if Leggett can stay on the field because of mediocre, at best, blocking skills. We're going to be running the ball a lot this year, so this will be an issue.
The criticism is not that he's a bad blocker - It's that he's not a willing blocker. Technique can be fixed, but if he views himself as a receiving only TE, then he's Amaro 2.0.
He did drop a pass in the championship game vs. Alabama, but made up for it with a clutch catch late in the game. It's a good value for the 5th round. On one scouting site he was compared to Kellen Davis. That's a pretty low bar, so hopefully he'll be better than that, but as they said on the draft panel "who's going to get him the ball?"
I love this pick. http://www.espn.com/blog/acc/post/_/id/91767/clemsons-jordan-leggett-goes-from-lazy-to-lethal Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
I'm sure the stat was based on regular season. Yeah, I'm so sick of the "who's going to throw them the ball" line. We have 3 NFL QBs, they weren't handed anything. We have a QB that has not started one damn game and was drafted in the second. I swear everytime I hear it I immediately lose respect for the moron that said it. They went to school for broadcasting not scouting, they can choke on their hair gel for all I care.
This is my favorite pick of the draft. Thought he would go higher. I feel like him and mike wiliams should be receiving thank you gifts from watson. They helped make him millions
